Dinner and a Movie

Repeat

Various objects and materials including, a bicycle, a notebook, three crayons, a paper plate, three toys and an orange.  

Inspired by the movie We The Animals (2018)

Artist Statement: 

This assemblage explores the affects that living in an unstable and abusive household have on a child, especially the way such children express their emotions. The bicycle symbolizes the cycle of the abused becoming the abuser. The smashed orange on the plate represents the unstable home life. The crayons and toys are in three's because this story mainly follows the lives of three brothers. Lastly, the notebook is upside to show it's not suppose to be seen and its pages are ripped out to reflect mistrust and betrayal.
